SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

National Offshore Safety Advisory 

Committee is a Federal advisory 

committee. The Committee was 

established on December 4, 2018, by 

section 601 of the Frank LoBiondo Coast 

Guard Authorization Act of 2018 (Pub. 

L. 115–282, 132 Stat. 4192), and 

amended by section 8331 of the Elijah 

E. Cummings Coast Guard 

Authorization Act of 2020 (Pub. L. 116– 

283, 134 Stat. 4702) and is codified in 

46 U.S.C. 15106. The Committee 

operates under the provisions of the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 

U.S.C. ch. 10) and 46 U.S.C. 15109. The 

Committee provides advice and 

recommendations to the Secretary of 

Homeland Security on matters relating 

to activities directly involved with, or in 

support of, the exploration of offshore 

mineral and energy resources, to the 

extent that such matters are within the 

jurisdiction of the U.S. Coast Guard. 

The Committee is required to meet at 

least once a year in accordance with 46 

U.S.C. 15109(a). We expect the 

Committee to meet at least twice a year, 

but it may meet more frequently. The 

meetings are generally held in Houston, 

Texas and New Orleans, Louisiana. 

Under provisions in 46 U.S.C. 

15109(f)(6), if you are appointed as a 

member of the Committee, your 

membership term will expire on 

December 31st of the third full year after 

the effective date of your appointment. 

The Secretary of Homeland Security 

may require an individual to have 

passed an appropriate security 

background examination before 

appointment to the Committee, 46 

U.S.C. 15109(f)(4). 

All members serve at their own 

expense and receive no salary or other 

compensation from the Federal 

Government. If you are appointed as a 

member of the Committee, you will be 

required to sign a Non-Disclosure 

Agreement and a Gratuitous Services 

Agreement. 

In this solicitation for Committee 

Members, we will consider applications 

for the following three positions: 

• One member representing entities 

engaged in offshore oil exploration and 

production on the Outer Continental 

Shelf adjacent to Alaska. 

• One member representing entities 

engaged in offshore drilling (one of two 

positions in this category is open). 

• One member representing entities 

engaged in the construction of offshore 

facilities on the U.S. Outer Continental 

Shelf. 

The members who will fill the 

positions described above will be 

appointed to represent the interest of 

their respective groups and viewpoints 

and are not Special Government 

Employees as defined in 18 U.S.C. 

202(a). 

In order for the Department, to fully 

leverage broad-ranging experience and 

education, the National Offshore Safety 

Advisory Committee must be diverse 

with regard to professional and 

technical expertise. The Department is 

committed to pursuing opportunities, 

consistent with applicable law, to 

compose a committee that reflects the 

diversity of the Nation’s people. 

If you are interested in applying to 

become a member of the Committee, 

email your application to 

Patrick.W.Clark@uscg.mil as provided 

in the ADDRESSES section of this notice. 

Applications must include: (a) a cover 

letter expressing interest in an 

appointment to the National Offshore 

Safety Advisory Committee, (b) a

relevant experience for the position 

applied for, and (c) a brief biography of
